RUSH: This guy from Livermore really had a good point, and I had to go through this pretty quickly, because we\u2019re running out of time in the previous hour. His point was this — and this is all about the arrogance and the superiorist attitude of the people on the left, including many people in the media. His point was: “You know, 90% of the Washington press corps admits to being liberal but they then say that has no effect on how they do their jobs. ‘Why, we are objective journalists. It has no impact on the way we do our jobs.\u2019 Of course we know that\u2019s bogus, but that\u2019s what they say. Yet here comes Judge Roberts, who is a conservative. We know more about John Roberts than we know about every journalist in this country combined.<\/p>\n

\"\"We know more about John Roberts and his personal life; we know more about his professional life than we will ever know about any journalist — and yet the same journalists, who claim to be objective, then stand up and question Roberts\u2019 ability to be lawful and abide by the law.” Now, I\u2019m going to tell you something else to be on the lookout for. Mr. Snerdley is right to have pointed this out. I myself have noticed this. You may have, too. Have you noticed all of the recent reporting on Roberts has references to Justice Scalia, that he is in the Scalia mold, that he is a blood brother to Scalia, that he and Scalia cut from the same cloth? You\u2019ve heard these references. You say, “Why are they doing this? Scalia is already on the court.” There are two reasons why they\u2019re doing this. Number one, if Roberts makes it through, they are setting down a marker:<\/p>\n

“Okay, this guy, but nobody more conservative or more out of the mainstream than this guy. No more Scalias. We\u2019re not going to put up any more Scalias. We\u2019re not going to put up with common sense and intelligence on this court. We want liberalism on this court, and we\u2019re not going to tolerate any Scalias,” and another reason they\u2019re doing it, reason they\u2019re setting up this marker, setting it out, is to lay the groundwork for opposing Scalia should Bush name him to be chief justice down the road. Make no mistake about this, folks. These people, they may appear disorganized when they get out these anti-war movements, they may appear disorganized and other things, but on this, this is where they circle the wagons and do the best that they can — and that\u2019s because this matters as much to them as the White House does.<\/p>\n

I had all these groups. I mentioned to you all of these groups. Let me go through this groups much the there\u2019s a massive PR Newswire dump today. All of these liberal groups have come out of the woodwork en masse on the same day announcing their opposition. The Human Rights Campaign, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, the National Center for Lesbian Rights — and Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays — put out a united statement. Why do they have to unite? Because they don\u2019t represent very many people!<\/p>\n

They unite because they don\u2019t represent very many people. The other group that came out today was the New Democrat Majority. “New Democrat Majority joins growing list of progressives opposing Roberts\u2019 nomination.” It\u2019s liberals. It\u2019s not “progressives,” and then you\u2019ve got People for the American Way and all this. The big dirty little secret is who do these groups represent as a practical matter? Nobody! They have no authority to speak for you and me. These groups individually or combined couldn\u2019t come close to the membership, say, of the National Rifle Association.<\/p>\n

They couldn\u2019t touch it, or Concerned Women for America, or any of these other groups on the right. What gives them the illusion of representing mainstream America is the amplification they get from their cohorts and willing accomplices in the mainstream press, but who do they really represent and why are they having to combine forces? Because individually they are insignificant. They represent minorities of people. Which is okay, but they\u2019re made to look like they are the mainstream! They are made to look like they are the mainstream and John Roberts and Antonin Scalia and Ronald Reagan and George Bush are the oddballs, when in fact it is just the opposite.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
